The purpose of generic-release (as I always understood it) was to provide a _example_ on how to create your own release package for your own forked distro. Some people I'm sure just used it completely, but it wasn't intended to be some kind of complete solution, just more an example. Perhaps we could just document in fedora-release (or elsewhere) how to make your own and drop generic-release package? > > To be honest, I've wondered for a while if we should just pull out the > > presets and have a systemd-presets package instead that contains these > > things so that fedora-release and generic-release don't need duplicate > > preset files and can just depend on the presets packages.

I'm not sure this complexity is really worth it... but I'll comment on the bug I guess. kevin -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
